positions, of which the following is a speci-n fioation.

Our invention relates to cleaning and bleaching compositions adapted particularly for use on Panama hats. As is well known, these hats are very valuable and very dura ble; also, when new they are quite white and are therefore rather easily soiled and discolored from handling, from sunburn, and from the gradual accumulation of dust upon them. Their great value and their fine lasting qualities makes it very desirable to have for them a cleaning and bleaching composition which will thoroughly clean and whiten the hats without injuring the most delicate fiber, and without in any way changing or distorting the shape of the hat.

It is our object to produce such a composition, and this we have done by uniting the Specification of Letters Patent.
